Fabric Care and Cleaning

Our Premium Outdoor Fabrics are Easy to Clean

QUALITY

We only use outdoor fabrics that are specially formulated for sustained outdoor use, resisting water, fading, and fraying. These vibrant fabric colors stand up to harsh chemicals like bleach, our recommended cleaner.

PROCESS

Our outdoor fabrics are 100% solution dyed acrylic, meaning that the acrylic is dyed in a liquid state, extracted into yarn, spun into thread, and woven into fabrics. Adding the dye in the liquid state allows the color to permeate through and prevent it from fading, washing, or wearing off.

CARE

While our outdoor fabrics are resistant to stains and damage from mildew or chlorine, we know that over time cleaning may be necessary. Our cushions, pillows, and umbrella canopies fabrics are easy to clean, only requiring simple household cleaners.

Instructions for Care

SPOT CLEAN

We recommend regularly spot cleaning any lighter stains from liquids, food, or dirt. Good for cushions, canopies or fabrics that have not been cleaned in less than a year.

1. Brush off any loose particles and rinse fabric completely with clean water.

2. Mix a solution of 1 TBSP liquid dish soap in 1 GAL lukewarm water (no more than 100F.)

3. Gently scrub fabric with a soft nylon brush or sponge.

4. Rinse fabric thoroughly in cold water to remove cleaner.

5. Allow to air dry. Unzip cushions and stand on end to speed dry time.

DEEP CLEAN

A more intensive cleaning method, good for cushions, canopies or fabrics that have not been washed or cleaned in more than a year or after intensive use.

1. Brush off any loose particles and rinse fabric completely with clean water.

5. Allow to air dry. Unzip cushions and stand on end to speed dry time.

IMPORTANT

Country Casual Teak does NOT recommend washing cushion covers or pillows in a washing machine. The agitation and spinning will fray the seam allowance on the inside to weaken or rip seams. Country Casual Teak is not responsible for damage resulting from machine washing, and machine washing negates any warranty on fabric, canopies, pillows or cushions.
